Any tips on growing a successful Blackberry bush?

Question

I decided to plant a Blackberry bush in my yard this year and was wondering if anyone had any good tips to help it grow to bear as much fruit as possible.

Answer 1

start with good soil - use compost - i usually put all fruit and veggie peelings in the soil - two years later, mu blackberries are taking over the yard!

Answer 2

Where is your location? Blackberries need no help, in fact, they take over very aggresively. For a lot of fruit plan on giving up a 10' x10' area of your yard.

Answer 3

Actually human urine is very helpful.
